Evelyn Burton letters to Carroll Steinbeck, November-December 1945

1945-12-14 Evelyn Burton to Carroll Steinbeck Page 2

today honey? I keep wondering if you have had alot of snow & if it's so cold there. Suppose the football season is over. Heard from Dad today. Said he & [Steward?] plan to go to Ia. City soon to B.B. game. That isn't surprising is it? I'll bet I couldn't even get the ball near the basket. I tried to [illegible] not long ago & I was so stiff & sore could hardly make it on duty. Dad says they're just very busy at the store & has had a touch of the flu. But he's better. Says hunting a house is definitely an uphill job. I hope it isn't spring before they find what they want. Eating at the restaurant doesn't seem to appeal to him.
Excuse the change of ink. Couldn't find the black ink. Our bottles [?] all blue.
It's really beautiful out tonite. So clear but oh so cold. We've been wanting to go on a sleigh ride but no luck
